Sharing Footage
Hello,
I’ve attempted to share my project several times by exporting and publishing to Vimeo but the video is not taking. The timeline alerted me that the sharing was successful but it is not saved in the location I chose.
What is the simplest way to share my video and what settings should I use. I export as an H.264 to compress the file to a reasonable size.
Thank you,
Rachel

Yeah I usually just upload manually as it involves too many unknowns trying to export/upload in one go via FCPX. Here are the suggestions from Vimeo itself: https://vimeo.com/help/compression

For any of the online services like Vimeo, I usually follow their guidelines. If the file isn’t going to be multiple GBs in size when rendered, I’ll even upload a ProRes 422 .mov file to them. Commercials tend to only be a few hundred MBs, so they’ll often go up in a higher quality than h.264.
And I don’t use the “Export to Vimeo” or “Export to YouTube” setting in FCP or Compressor. I’ll export the video, then log into my account and upload using the website. Because I can begin setting the basic, privacy, and other settings while it’s uploading, I prefer doing it this way.
